Detectio Group

What Detectio Group does

Detectio Group is a Polish sole proprietorship (jednoosobowa działalność gospodarcza) founded in 2009 by Marian Szłapa, a retired officer of Poland's Central Bureau of Investigation (CBŚP). The firm operates as a multi-disciplinary provider of compliance, security, and investigative services, anchored by a Ministry of Internal Affairs (MSWiA)-licensed detective agency and extended into information security, GDPR/RODO outsourcing, and proprietary whistleblower management software. Operations are headquartered in Poland with stated coverage extending into the EU and the United Kingdom, serving public administration, financial services, and private-sector companies with 50 or more employees.

The company's flagship technology asset is DGSygnalistaPRO, a proprietary whistleblower management platform distributed under a SaaS-style subscription model with entry pricing at roughly 200 PLN per month. The portfolio also includes full-liability GDPR/RODO outsourcing under the PF2 model (from approximately 1,000 PLN per month), ISO 27001 consulting and audits (project-priced at 3,000–7,000 PLN), OSINT investigations, social engineering penetration testing, and certified training delivered through the national BUR (Baza Usług Rozwojowych) database. DGSygnalistaPRO and the broader compliance offering are distributed through a multi-tier partner program supported by 16 regional coordinators across Poland, supplemented by a legal-services partnership with Kancelaria Prawna A. Oszczęda.

Commercially, Detectio combines low-priced recurring subscriptions with episodic project work, targeting a high-volume SMB and mid-market customer profile rather than large enterprise anchors. The business is structured as a sole proprietorship under the founder's name, with reported headcount in the 1–10 range and no external funding. In 2022 the entity was rebranded from Prywatne Biuro Śledcze DETECTIO to DETECTIO GROUP, marking a strategic repositioning from a single-line detective agency into a broader compliance and security services portfolio.
